PRESENTED L’ÉTAPE MADRID BY TOUR DE FRANCE PRESENTED BY UNIVERSAE

09/20/2023. This Wednesday, September 20, Villanueva del Pardillo hosted the presentation of the cycling tour L'Étape Madrid by Tour de France Presented by UNIVERSAE. An event that is being held for the third consecutive year in the city of Madrid and has all the infrastructure and excitement of La Grande Boucle.

The event was attended by Mayor Villanueva del Pardillo, Eduardo Fernández Navarro; the CEO of RPM Sports, Jesus García; the delegate of AEDAS Homes, Raimundo Giménez; and the director of the L’Étape Spain brand, Andrés Novo.

The test will be held on October 1, with start and finish in the town of Villanueva del Pardillo. A fact that has been highlighted by Eduardo Fernández Navarro, mayor of the municipality: “Villanueva del Pardillo is a city that is committed to sports and sustainable mobility. That L'Étape Madrid is held here is a logical consequence of this commitment and of that wonderful natural environment that surrounds us."

The CEO of RPM Sports, Jesús García, has highlighted the “incomparable framework” that Villanueva del Pardillo offers for the practice of sport. “Talking about the towns of Guadarrama is talking about the history of cycling. Just a few days ago we saw the best cyclists in the world compete in the last stage of La Vuelta. One more example of that privileged setting in which L’Étape Madrid by Tour de France presented by Universae takes place”, he explained.

A WEEKEND PARTY

Although the cycling event will be held on Sunday, the entire weekend will be a party celebrated around the bicycle. Starting on Saturday, the Village will be open, where runners will collect their numbers and will be able to enjoy all the activations available to sponsors.

And also the Family Ride that AEDAS Homes will organize. A route of a handful of kilometers dedicated especially so that the little ones can participate in the celebration. “We are proud to be able to help children get into the world of cycling,” said Raimundo Giménez, delegate of AEDAS Homes. “One of our founding values is sustainability in everything we do and we believe that can also be achieved through promoting the cleanest forms of mobility. Especially among the little ones,” he added.

Two days of cycling that started with this presentation. “Although the 153 kilometers of route are the highlight of the party, L’Étape Madrid by Tour de France presented by UNIVERSAE is much more,” highlighted Andrés Novo, director of the L’Étape Spain brand. “The idea is that the spirit of the Tour de France and that characteristic love for cycling never stops, that it remains alive in all the L’Étape events and in all the events, like this one today.”
